Russia’s Krasheninnikov volcano erupted for the first time in centuries on August 3, sending ash and gas nearly four miles into the atmosphere—less than 150 miles away from the epicenter of the magnitude 8.

Officials believe a volcano that erupted in Russia after hundreds of years may be connected to a huge earthquake last week. See video and photos.

Both residents and tourists have been advised to stay at least 10 kilometres away from the summits of these volcanoes
